2.2 Unpacking
Canoga Perkins products are carefully inspected and tested prior to shipment from the factory. It is recommended that you
keep the shipping package until the unit has been installed and verified as being fully operational. In the unlikely event that
the unit is defective, contact the Canoga Perkins Customer Service department for a Return Material Authorization (RMA)
number. For directions on how to return the unit refer to Appendix A.
Canoga Perkins products, like all electronic devices with static sensitive components, should be handled with care. Since
there are no user-serviceable parts inside the unit, opening the case will void the factory warranty.
2.3 Setup of the 9119 Media Converter
The 9119 UTP-to-Fiber Media Converter requires its own power source. The 9119 Media Converter is supplied with a wall-
mount power supply that requires 90-130VAC at 50-60Hz and provides +5VDC to the unit. The AC power supply connects
to the 9119 via the 5VDC power connection. An optional 220V power supply is available or the unit can be rack mounted
in the 9101 LAN Chassis.
2.3.1 UTP Connection
The 9119 Media Converter features a 8-pin modular RJ style connector on the UTP side of the network (see Figure 2-2).
Both normal and internally crossed-over connections are provided to accommodate straight-through patch cable connec-
tions to any type of 100BASE-TX port.
Caution: To protect the Ethernet port from an intrabuilding lightening surge, use a properly grounded shielded
cable.
To assure a correct connection, connect one end of a standard "straight-through" UTP cable to the 100BASE-TX port of the
LAN device. If this port is marked with an X, connect the other end to the 9119s NORM jack. Otherwise, connect the other
to the 9119s X jack. (One and only one end of the cable should be connected to an X jack).
2.3.2 Fiber Connection
The 9119 Media Converter connects to fiber optic cable via a duplex SC or ST type connector on the rear panel (see Figure
2-3).
Connect the Tx of one device to the Rx of the other, and vice-versa. When working with fiber optic cables and connectors,
care should be taken to prevent contaminating connector plugs and sleeves. Dirt and dust can significantly affect connector
insertion loss and consequently degrade performance.
